Len Barry - I Struck It Rich lyrics

rate me

I love you, baby

Need you, darling, all right

Now that I found gold

You know I'm gonna stake my claim

It's not the kind of gold

That gives a man fortune and fame

Before I met you, girl

My life was so empty

To others, I'm still poor

But to me, I've got plenty

And, baby, let me tell you, baby

(CHORUS)

I struck it rich when I found you, baby

And I found you in the nick of time

I struck it rich when I found you, honey

And I'll be rich just as long as you're mine

Cause I love you, baby

I need you, darling, all right

Girls like you are rare, it's true

You can't find them no more

But I was like a miner searching

Many years ago, a wise man said

Good things come to those

Who go out and get it

And, baby, I went out and got you

I struck it rich when I found you, baby

Oh, I found you in the nick of time

I struck it rich when I found your loving

And I'll be rich just as long as you're mine

Cause I love you, baby

I need you, honey, all right

Sing it with me now

I struck it rich when I found you, baby

Oh, I'm wealthy cause I'm healthy

And you're so young

I struck it rich when I found you, baby

Cause my name is on the tip of your tongue

I struck it rich when I found you, baby

You're my girl, don't you know

We got it made in the shade now
